She continues to endure decades while retaining a an aura of humble but mystical qualities. She has my respect and admiration always. I kind of feel like I know her thru her songs.<br />It all started in 1977 when as a teenager I was captivated by her at an fm concert at exhibition stadium in toronto.<br /><br /><br />Carol-Ann Sedlakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01668511532620316171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-49155323598100707562013-01-14T21:53:18.633-06:002013-01-14T21:53:18.633-06:00Well you have John and Mick leaving in Hawaii, whi...Well you have John and Mick leaving in Hawaii, while Stevie and Lindsey live in Los Angeles (only about 40 min from each other) yet when they&#39;re not touring they never seem to get together. I know Stevie visits Mick and John in Maui quite often, but Lindsey seems to be focused on being a dad and husband and living in his own bubble. Nothing wrong with that, but you have to BE together to make music...unless you want to do what the &quot;pop&quot; bands do and make music in whichever studio your closest to and email your digital track to everyone else. I was quite shocked that Stevie went up to Lindsey&#39;s house to record her vocals, especially when his assistant could have just forwarded them to Stevie&#39;s people and record her in her living room. I can&#39;t wait to see the new photo shoot Stevie&#39;s been talking about - hopefully some great &quot;commercial&quot; shots that they&#39;ll use on this tour instead of rehashing the same old 10 year old photos from SYW.

While other acts of their stature (The Eagles, Paul McCartney) have scored sales successes through alternative distribution channels (WalMart exclusives, Starbucks), FM has operated under an obsolete business model that&#39;s done little to enhance their sales. It a wonder that SAY YOU WILL sold at well as it did. They&#39;re still very popular but fans need to know they&#39;re active and making music - and there&#39;s only one way to do that. Stay active and make music.

She&#39;s lost both of her parents, she&#39;s almost 65... and she probably needs a little time to ponder her life, where she is, and where she is going. She&#39;s sacrificed her whole life for her fans and a little down-time is allowed...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-52967176277266672372013-01-14T18:32:44.426-06:002013-01-14T18:32:44.426-06:0095% of people buy their music online.

She claims to write all the time, but I have a feeling that is mostly daily ramblings in her journal. Turning those musings into magical poetry is surely difficult, and it seems to me that she&#39;s having a tough time getting to that point. She really needs to stop thinking about how much she&#39;s going to sell, who&#39;s going to &quot;steal&quot; her songs, and what the record company will think if she doesn&#39;t write a &quot;Call Me Maybe&quot;-style hit song. You&#39;re STEVIE NICKS!!!! If you&#39;d embrace the Internet you&#39;d realize that you don&#39;t even need a record company anymore and that you&#39;d make more money if you just put your music out there yourself, a couple of songs at a time. Come on, Stevie, clear your mind and write some beautiful music for Fleetwood Mac......

In addition, I think her belief about internet piracy bums her out and gets in her way of creating since her mindset seems to be - why write another song, nobody&#39;s gonna buy it, or hear it (the general public), and then they&#39;ll probably steal it off the internet. I really wish she&#39;d just stop wagging her finger at the internet. Hell, she&#39;s been on this internet rant since 2005! It&#39;s been 8 years and the internet is not going away and has forever changed the music business model. Even if the Internet wasn&#39;t a factor, at this stage in her career age, she&#39;d still be selling less units anyway. She&#39;d be wise to and just continue to create &amp; write beautiful masterpieces in her golden years &amp; not concern herself about sales in general and aim for critical success and further cement her legacy as one of the primiere singer songwriters of a generation and beyond.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-69751336928678353582013-01-13T18:22:17.938-06:002013-01-13T18:22:17.938-06:00Poster # 4, did you dig through her garbage, too?Poster # 4, did you dig through her garbage, too?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-562540673435001772013-01-13T18:01:07.745-06:002013-01-13T18:01:07.745-06:00Sounds like Stevie may be suffering from writer&#3...Sounds like Stevie may be suffering from writer&#39;s block. She left her holiday in Key West Florida early, where she had gone to write a song or two for Fleetwood Mac, to go with the two songs Lindsey did. Not at a rented beachfront Malibu house, she still seems unable to call upon her muse to get out a song or two. Despite the fact that she says her New Year&#39;s resulolution is to make the 2013 year of Fleetwood Mac her priority. Come on Stevie, write us a couple new classic Mac songs ! ! !
